The skinny: There was little discussion about sliding eighth-ranked Central Valley after suffering its first loss of the season. The issue boiled down to dropping a hard-fought 13-7 decision to fifth-ranked West Allegheny. Top-ranked Archbishop Wood's 41-0 dissection of District 12 combatant Cardinal O'Hara sets up this week's tussle with Class AAAA No. 3 St. Joseph's Prep. Defending PIAA champ Cathedral Prep hammered its third out-of-state opponent, Youngstown (OH) Ursuline, 37-8. Former Class AAAA team to watch McDowell (2-3) is next up for Mike Mischler's crew.
